Convergent Love

Chapter 10: Falling

My alarm went off at 9:00am. I couldn't believe it was finally graduation day. I felt like I was in college for 10 years! I looked over and saw Hoseok was still asleep. I turned onto my side and slid my arm around his waist, spooning him. He felt so good lying next to me. I was never one for sleeping naked, but with him it felt completely natural. Feeling my embrace, he started to stir and grabbed my hand. I started trailing his back with soft breathy kisses.

"Are you awake?" I asked.

"Nope," he replied cutely.

"Well, I guess I'm going to have to wake you up then." I moved my hand over his bare chest and passionately kissed the back of his neck.

"Wow, can you be my alarm clock every morning?"

"Sure, but we'd probably be late for everything," I teased.

Pressing my bare chest against his back, I slowly moved one hand over his lower abdomen and kissed his upper back. I caressingly ran my fingers through his hair. He moaned softly and quickly flipped over to lie on top of me. Without hesitation, he lustfully kissed me while twirling his tongue with mine. I clawed his back and wrapped my legs around his waist while he feverishly worked his kisses down my neck and began to nuzzle my breast. Our bodies moved in unison with every touch and arch until eventually we became one as he filled my depths. Making love with him had been so much better after I went on birth control and we didn't have to stop our rhythm to put on a condom.

"Oh Y/N, you feel amazing! I don't think I'll ever get enough of you!" he exclaimed breathlessly while rocking his hips deeper into mine.

"There, Hoseok. You're hitting the right spot. Please don't stop," I cried eagerly.

"That's it, Sunshine. I like it when you tell me what you want."

We moved together with our hips thrusting simultaneously until we climaxed as one. He continued to slowly explore my core until the hardness of his shaft diminished. We laid there, entangled in each other's embrace while we caught our breath. He gently kissed my forehead and slowly released our connection. I pulled him back to me into a tight hug.

"Wait, stay here for a few more minutes. I just want to hold you," I pleaded.

"Sure, anything you want."

After a few minutes, I looked at the time. It was already 10:30am. We had to be at the Concert Hall by 2:00pm for our graduation ceremony. We also needed to shower, eat, and stop at my apartment so I could change my clothes and pick up my cap and gown.

"Okay, I'm good with hugs. We really need to get out of bed and get ready for today," I said as I headed for the shower.

"Wait, I'll shower with you," he said, following me.

"Oh no, you don't! If you go in there with me we'll definitely miss our graduation. I'm going ALONE first."

"I promise I'll behave," he pleaded with a cute smile.

"Yeah, right! That's what you said the last time, and we were 45 minutes late meeting our friends for a movie." I entered the bathroom and locked the door.

When I came out, he was still naked and sitting on the edge of the bed, pouting.

"I can't believe you locked the door. Oh well, it's your loss." He posed and strutted to the shower. All I could do was watch and smile because I knew he was right.

While he was in the shower, his cell phone rang. I looked to see who was calling, and it was Yoongi. I debated whether I should answer. Just when I was about to pick up the call, the ringing stopped. However, it started ringing again, so I answered.

"Hi Yoongi. It's Y/N. Hoseok's in the shower right now," I said.

"Oh, hi Y/N. I wasn't expecting you to answer. I didn't realize you'd still be there." he said softly. My heart skipped a beat at his low smooth voice.

I paused for a bit. "Do you want me to give him a message?"

"Umm, I was just calling to reconfirm the time for the ceremony. It's 3:00pm at the Concert Hall, then dinner afterwards, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

There was a moment of silence before he said, "Well, that's all I wanted to talk to him about."

"Okay. Oh, and make sure to bring a jacket. I know how you get cold easily, and the A/C in the Concert Hall can get pretty chilly."

"Nice to hear you remembered that." By his tone, I could tell he was smiling.

Surprised and not sure how to respond, I awkwardly replied, "Well, I ... umm ... really didn't know. I just didn't want you to be freezing for a couple of hours." In reality, I strangely knew that he always carried a jacket wherever he went, just in case it was cold.

"Thanks for thinking of me. We'll see you guys there. Oh, and wear lavender please." He hung up.

I stood there puzzled. How was it that whenever I saw, touched or talked to Yoongi, I knew more about him? We were very careful the night before not to touch or to be near each other. Yet it seemed the longer I was in his presence, the stronger our connection became. By the end of that evening, we didn't need to touch to spark an image or memory in my mind. His laugh alone had triggered a flashback of us in the kitchen.

"Why are you laughing? It's not funny!" I said as I got up off the freshly mopped floor.

"I'm sorry, I can't help myself. You just look so cute and funny trying to stand up. Your facial expressions are priceless!" Yoongi chuckled.

"Instead of laughing, why don't you help me!"

"Then we both would be slipping, sliding, and falling," he replied, trying to help me up. "I'm sorry, you're right. I should have helped you, but you just looked too darn cute!"

He gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Pouting, I tried to pull away from his embrace, which only made us lose our balance on the slippery floor, resulting in us both plopping on our behinds. We started laughing, which turned into kissing.

Slightly pulling away, he brought his hand to embrace the side of my face. "Y/N, I love how you make me laugh. You make me so happy. Let's stay like this always." He kissed me gently.

I looked deeply into his eyes. "Absolutely. Just promise you'll always be there to pick me up when I fall."

"Of course. I'll always be here for you," he lovingly replied.

I snapped back to reality when I heard Hoseok coming out of the bathroom singing. I told him Yoongi had called to confirm the times for today's events, and Hoseok didn't need to call him back. We had a quick lunch and then headed to my apartment to pick up Malia and my things. I tried hard to stay focused on graduation, but my thoughts kept drifting to Yoongi.

At my apartment I hurriedly got ready. Malia was already dressed, so she kept Hoseok company. Fortunately, I had already picked out my outfit: white capri pants and my teal blouse, which I thought would go well with my white cap and gown. I got dressed, did my makeup, and selected a headband for my hair. I went to my dresser to put on some body mist and stood there staring at the bottles. I had various scents, but I'd only been wearing the vanilla the past several months for Hoseok. I picked up the bottle and did a couple of sprays.

"Okay, I'm ready. Shall we get going?" I said, coming out from my room.

"Sure! You look beautiful, Sunshine!" Hoseok said, looking me over with a smile. "You smell great, too!"

"Thank you, Babe."

We grabbed our things and headed out the door. Just before I was about to close it and lock up, I ran back to my room and grabbed the bottle of lavender mist. I did one spray. I don't know why. I just felt I needed to ..... for Yoongi.
